I don't mean to speak for Evan, but I believe from his posts, a nylon electric is what he has in mind.

The template showing the sapwood on the veneer at the outside edges at the 2:56 mark took my breath away!

Thanks for the look behind the scenes.

Yes, a nylon electric, ebony faced. It's on its way. Will probably take a while to get out of Ireland given the heavy traffic at Emerald Central.

Thank you for posting the direct link, Sean. I expect to contact you within the next month to order my 3rd Emerald.

Cecilt;

Are you by any chance the same Cecilt on a vehicle forum? Just curious...

Any "sneak peeks" of this ebony?

The first veneer that Alistair rolls out in the video you provide above, that's the ebony.

Hi Evan,

If Escapees discussion forum, yes. Otherwise, no.

Yo, Sean;

Veneers can be tricky to cut. How is Alistair doing his surgery? I've used a scalpel, but no matter what I've tried, veneers are tricky.
